Wow, your creations are freaking genius. This video could well go for 30 minutes longer and I'd still be unable to look away.

That's just awesome Matt! Another great masterpiece, as usual.

Thanks Darryl. : )

Looking good! I believe I've commented on some elements of this track before, but I really like the fact that the track doubles back on itself in several places so that the motion of the marbles doesn't just run in a big circle.  I like the tipping arm at the bottom and the wiggly section of track down there as well. The scales are fab, of course, as are the loops (always love the loops!). Nice job!

Thanks, Tom, for your nice comments. This turned out to be a long project. The acrylic cover on it now, makes it look very, very nice. (I'll add some pics to my blog soon) I also love making loops. They are relatively easy to make, and a lot of fun to watch. Again, thanks for your feedback!

How do you weld these? TIG?

[motleymdg]

Yes, TIG. I have a Miller Maxstar 150sth. Great little machine! : )

how much time u needed to make each of them? it looks like 2 weeks to make a complete?

[motleymdg]

A little desktop can take just a day, and a very large sculpture can take as much as 4-6 weeks from start to finish.
